Most, if not all, of the parables are relevant in todays world. However, modern-day problems of e.g. technology (tv) and so forth are not specifically addressed because there was no tv 2,000 years ago. None of the women were wearing miniskirts like todays women sometimes to, so there's nothing in The Bible that mentions that immorality. Yet, people were told to be respectful, told to be kind to each other, to be patient, those things and more, are very relevant. The parable of the Good Samaritan, for example is still relevant in its meaning, not specifically the words "Samaritan" and so forth, still if someone sees a very poor man begging, the example of the Parable of the Good Samaritan would be: be kind, give him money, give him a place to sleep and clothes to wear, even later help him find a job. In that way, its' also a parable that teaches NON-racism, don't hate other races: as the story goes, the Samaritan was a race hated by the Jews, but Jesus gave the teaching that a Jew can help the Samaritans. OK? So, it's still relevant, today. If you don't know that parable, it might be a good idea to telephone a Christian Church, and ask them for more information. Take care of yourself.
